Chapter 47

Loki Familia is one of the most powerful Familia in all Orario. One day news about an adventurer who leveled up from 1 to 4 on the very same day he received Falna.

The story was impossible and the Familia treated it as the guild error to distinguish the truth but they've still searched about this man called Ace. They found nothing and it's like he appears out of nothing.

The only information they've found out about him is the very first day he came to Orario he entered the dungeon without Falna. They thought he has the strength of the beast people which can defeat super weak monsters even without Falna.

It seems like even before he receives Falna he can already create things from energy which is unheard of in this lower world.

The Loki Familia issued an order to be neutral and under no circumstances be hostile with this man. The unknown is one of the most dangerous things there is but also one who gave most of the rewards.

Ais Wallenstein is their princess the most talented swordswoman in their Familia apparently made contact with this man when she is teaching the child of Hestia. Loki treats it as Talented attracts another talented individual.

Loki Familia right now has its hand full because some kind of monster tamers manages to tame a new type of monster that has a different magic core and can detect magic.

They've found out that these monster tamers are actually strong because one of them defeat Ais when she was level 5 on floor 18, also called Rivira.

Rivira is a town made by adventurers located on the 18th Floor of the Dungeon.

This defeat put Ais in despair leading her to solo a floor boss on the 37th floor. The floor boss is Level 6 while Ais is level 5 she won against the floor boss while suffering several injuries herself but this win pushes her and made her level 6.

But that is not all because the tamer seems to call Ais by the name of her mother, Aria which arises many conflicted emotions from the princess.

"Aria if you want your answer go on the 59th floor," The monster tamer said. This also one of the reasons why Loki Familia collaborated with Hephaestus Familia to reach 59th-floor safety.

This expedition will commence 4 days from now but now let's go back to the present.

The Loki Familia cannot believe what they are seeing. It seems that Ace has been playing with Ais this whole time in sparring.

Ace easily dodges Ais's attack and when Ais use Ariel to imbued her weapon with wind Ace will reflect her attack to her. The cycle repeats as they felt Ais is getting annoyed making her moves more clumsy.

"Isn't he level 4?" Finn questioned.

"Hmm, For sure he is...Even the guild confirmed it," Loki said as she was also surprised that Ais the sword princess is being played like a child.

If they didn't know Ace's level they will surely say that he is higher level than Ais, but the only level 7 in the entire Orario is Ottar the captain of Freya Familia.

The fight now was different than their first sparring. Right now Ace is on top of his game that is why Ais is having a much harder time landing a hit.

"Fight me properly, Tempest," Ais said as she channels stronger wind to her weapon.

Ace just smiled, losing your temper in battle is a very bad thing.

Ace didn't dodge and just reinforced his auto-guard taking Ais all-out attack.

"Lil Rafaga!" Ais said as she uses all her wind and imbued it in her weapon. She knows that this is her only attack that can pierce Ace's shield.

*Clang*

*Swish*

Wind explodes upon the area. Loki, Finn, Tione, Tiona, and other Familia members cannot believe what they saw, Ace with his arms crossed covered in an invisible barrier while looking at the sword princess in mid-air that failed to pierce his shield.

"More..." Ais said as she didn't let her first failure stop her.

"Lil Rafaga!" Ais shouted...

"Lil Rafaga!" Ais shouted...

"Lil Rafaga!" Ais shouted...

"Lil Rafaga!" Ais shouted...

No matter how much she tried the barrier never break.

"Lil Rafafa!" Not accepting her weakness Ais tried again but she got surprised because there was no resistance. Ace deactivated his auto-guard but she cannot stop her attack.

Ace smiled as he dodges her attack then chop her wrist making her let go of her weapon.

The wind dissipated as the sword imbued with Ariel pierce and made a crater in the ground.

She completely lost...

Ais stood still with a shadow covering her eyes. She clenches her fist so hard, the feeling of being weak envelope her whole character. She breathes in and slowly picks up her sword..She refuses to be forever mediocre, she refuses to be weak.

"One more!" Ais said with a fiercer expression. The figure that she wants to catch up to is slowly changing to Ace each time he beat her.

The sparring begins again, Ais lose!

"One more!"

They sparred multiple times before ending it because Ais is low on Mind and if she keeps on going she will pass out.

Ace approaches the bruise Ais and pet her head, "Good you are getting stronger pretty fast."

Ais pouted and said, "Mou! Please take me seriously."

Ace didn't heal Ais as he still wants some of his ability to remain secret.

"Do you think you can beat him, Finn?" Loki seriously asked without the playfulness in her voice.

Finn thinks for a moment then said, "Alone? No, I cannot but if Gareth can break his shield maybe we have a chance."

"That's bad news do you think you can get him in our Familia?" Loki questioned.

"Hmm, He seems interested in our Tiona here..." Finn answered as he weighs out their options.

Tiona point at herself then said, "Ara, ara, It so hard to be a lovely girl."

"Pfff!" Her Familia laugh at her.

"Heyyy!" Tiona pouted.

Ace said goodbye to Ais then approach Tiona who quickly blush in anticipation of what's going to happen next.

Ace in front of Tiona then scanned her for a second time, 'Yeah just like a thought I, she exactly look like her.'

Tiona is the spitting image of Ace's childhood friend in his original world who died of sickness. She is his first love her final words were "watch the end of One Piece for me."

'Their face looks exactly the same but their boobs...sigh,' Ace thought.

"Hey did you just thought something rude?" Tiona said while gritting her teeth.

Ace gently smiled then said, "Don't worry I can accept you for who you are."

"So you did think something rude! I will turn you down! Reject, reject!!!" Tiona said as she let her tongue out but the action just made Ace smile more.

"I'm going to take a shower," Ais indifferently said but the dark aura that surrounds her tells more than her expression.

"Ais-tan let me join you~," Loki said as she hops away and follows Ais.
